Heavenly King Virūpāk ? a, who was on duty at the Southern Heavenly Gate, saw a pegasus galloping over from afar. He thought that it was another immortal who was on an official mission, so he shouted,""Immortals and Gods on horseback, do you have a token to ride a horse out?”
Wukong heard it clearly from his horse. He pretended to be panicked and shouted anxiously,"The Pegasus is frightened! The Pegasus is frightened!" As he shouted, he urged the Pegasus to charge straight into the Divine Gate.
The divine soldiers and generals on duty at the door saw that the pegasus was frightened and quickly made way. Before the gods could understand, Wukong had already left the Southern Heavenly Gate and headed for the lower realm. Virūpāk ? a looked in the direction where Wukong had left and said,""It's fine. The monkey on the horse is the new Imperial Horse Supervisor, Sun Wukong, who rode his Pegasus upside down a few days ago. This guy can't even tame a pegasus. I think he's done with his job as the Imperial Horse Supervisor.”After he finished speaking, he actually gloated.
Besides, when Nezha returned to the Heavenly King Mansion, he revealed his original body and barged in. Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li was drinking tea in the hall when he suddenly saw Nezha rushing in with an angry face. Without greeting him, he kicked open the door of the arsenal... When he came out, his face was full of killing intent. He stepped on the Firestorm Wheels and held the Fire-Sharp Spear. He rushed out again. Seeing his son like this, Heavenly King Li could not help but be shocked. He hurriedly stood up and blocked Nezha, shouting,"Nezha! Didn't you go to the South Sea to see your brother? Why did he look like this? What was the matter?”
Seeing that his father stopped him, Nezha quickly told him what had happened. Finally, he waved his Fire-tipped Spear and said hatefully,"If I don't kill the Horse Plague today, it will be difficult to appease the anger in my heart!”
Heavenly King Li also cursed angrily,""The 'Horse Plague' humiliated my son like this and deserved to be killed! If this king doesn't avenge my son, then wouldn't I have been a marshal of the heavenly army for nothing?”However, Heavenly King Li was a cunning old fox after all. He pondered for a moment and quickly said to Nezha,"How dare a small 'horse plague' humiliate my son like this? Father, I'm afraid there's something behind this. Otherwise, where did this Sun Wukong get such courage?”
"Father, do you mean that the monkey demon has a backer in the Heavenly Court?”
"This demon monkey was summoned by Taibai Jinxing from the lower realm, and Taibai Jinxing has always been at odds with father. Sun Wukong must have sided with Venus to have the guts to go against us.”Heavenly King Li said with certainty.
Nezha did not calm down because of his father's words. He still shouted,"I don't care about this! I must kill Sun Wukong today to vent my anger.”After saying that, he shook the Fire-tipped Spear in his hand and went around Heavenly King Li to charge out.
Nezha was much more powerful than Heavenly King Li. Seeing that he could not stop his son, Heavenly King Li quickly shook the pagoda in his hand and shouted,"My son, take care. We must take revenge! Only, my son, you must listen to my father's instructions first.”After saying that, the seven-story exquisite pagoda in his hand was shaken until it made a "ding dang" sound. When he saw Nezha turn around, he said word by word,"My son, revenge is necessary, just not today.”
"Father! Why?" Nezha shouted in confusion.
"My son, don't you know that you went to borrow a horse from the Imperial Steed Bureau today? All the imperial horses were pet horses reared by the Heavenly Emperor, not ordinary horses. Usually, only immortals and gods who had received orders from the Celestial Emperor could ride it. In the past, you were able to borrow horses as you pleased because Ma Wangshen, the former head of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, fawned over my father. However, it was different now. This Sun Wukong was Taibai Jinxing's confidant. You have violated the rules of heaven by borrowing the imperial horse privately, and you fought with Sun Wukong in the Imperial Horse Bureau. If he tells Taibai Jinxing about this, Taibai Jinxing will report this to the Heavenly Emperor, and you will be punished.”Heavenly King Li stared at Nezha with a serious expression and continued,"The most important thing now is to calm this matter down. Father will give you an urgent military order immediately to prove that you are going to the Imperial Horse Inspectorate for military matters.”
Heavenly King Li handed the military list to Nezha and said,"My son, immediately go out of the Southern Heavenly Gate and pretend to be in the lower realm to investigate the demon situation. Then, go around the lower realm and come back. Do you understand what father means?"
Nezha thought for a moment and said unwillingly,"I understand. But today's grudge…could he just let it go like this?”
"How can we forget about it? Take my father's demon-subduing token and descend to the lower realm immediately. We'll take revenge later!”Heavenly King Li waved his hand at Nezha." My father is going to the Imperial Horse Bureau to see if Emperor Guan Sheng and the Six Divine Generals will make a big deal out of this matter. If Taibai Jinxing catches hold of us, it will be troublesome."”
Heavenly King Li arranged for his son to leave the marshal's residence and rush to the Imperial Horse Bureau. Not far away, he saw a gust of wind blowing in his face. Emperor Guan Sheng and the Six Divine Generals appeared in front of Heavenly King Li.
The Heavenly King saw that all the gods were in a sorry state and knew that things were not good. He hurriedly returned to the Marshal's Mansion with the gods.
Heavenly King Li listened to Emperor Guan Sheng and the six Divine Generals, and he looked at the other Divine Generals in puzzlement."How can a demon monkey that has just ascended to the sky have such extraordinary divine powers? The few of you working together are still not his match. It's really unbelievable.”
"That's right, Big Brother! The lackey also found it unbelievable. That demonic monkey bent my saber hilt with a single strike. I'm afraid there aren't many gods in the Heaven Realm who have such magical powers.”
Heavenly King Li pondered for a long time before saying,""This king is also puzzled. It seems that this 'Horse Plague' is really not easy to deal with. "How about this, you guys stay in the marshal's mansion first. I'll go to the Imperial Horse Bureau to appease the monkey demon, in case this matter gets to the Celestial Thearch and is detrimental to us." After that, I'll make a trip to Tushita Palace and ask the Dao Ancestors and Old Lords for a few healing pills for the brothers to consume.”
Heavenly King Li left in a hurry. Emperor Guan Sheng and the Six Divine Generals kept cursing the horse plague in the marshal's manor. Not long after, Heavenly King Li returned with a smile on his face.
The moment Heavenly King Li entered the marshal's hall, he shouted happily,""Everyone, don't worry. This time, Sun Wukong is dead!”
All the generals heard this and gathered around. "We are at fault for this matter," Saint Emperor Guan hurriedly asked."What trouble did the demonic monkey cause?”
Heavenly King Li was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he took out a white jade bottle from his pocket and poured out some green pills from the bottle. As he distributed the pills to all the generals, he said,"No hurry, no hurry. Everyone, eat these healing pills first.”He shook the jade bottle in his hand." These pills are the 'Healing and Cultivation Extending Pills' that the Old Lord has carefully refined. All you need to do is take two pills and it will guarantee that your injuries will be healed."”
Hearing this, all the generals, regardless of whether they were injured or not, reached out to take the pill and swallowed it. Then, they stretched their arms and legs and said repeatedly,"As expected, the medicine has healed. It seems that even the power and essence in my body are better than before.”Then, they thanked Heavenly King Li.
Heavenly King Li cupped his hands and returned the greeting,""We're all brothers, so there's no need to be polite! Isn't today's matter all for the sake of Nezha? This king should thank everyone." As he spoke, he handed the white jade bottle in his hand to Emperor Guan Sheng." Elder Jun has always been very stingy. I lied to him that you were injured when you were subduing demons in the lower realm. Who knew that when he heard this, he actually changed his usual miserly habit. Without a word, he gave this entire bottle to this king and even urged this king to quickly return to the residence to treat everyone's injuries. Therefore, everyone was still blessed by Lao Zi! Hahaha…" After saying that, he laughed out loud.
All the divine generals complimented Heavenly King Li,""It's all because of the Heavenly King's face. If we go and ask for it, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to get even one.”
Emperor Guan Sheng took the jade bottle and shook it. He could tell that there were still a few pills in the bottle, so he happily stuffed the jade bottle into his pocket and urged Li Jing anxiously,"Heavenly King, you can talk about the monkey demon now.”
Heavenly King Li's joy was beyond words. He looked at the Divine Generals and said in a clear voice,"When I arrived at the Imperial Horse Prison, I saw that all the immortal officials in the prison had been immobilized by Sun Wukong's spell. After I dispelled the spell for them, I heard from the immortal officials that Sun Wukong led a pegasus away and left without saying goodbye to the Heavenly Court.”At this point, he looked at the Divine Generals and laughed again."Hahaha, this demon monkey left without saying goodbye. He despised the heavenly rules and stole from his own pocket. Isn't this a capital crime?”
As soon as Heavenly King Li finished speaking, the gods said,"Tomorrow, the Heavenly King will come out and take a look at the demon monkey. Then, he will ask the Heavenly King to go down to the lower realm to eliminate the demon. We are willing to go with the Heavenly King and swear to kill the demonic monkey!”
"Right, tomorrow this king will ask the lower realm to eliminate the demons. However, I have to inform the Divine Lord of the Warrior's Department first to transfer the Three-Eyed Horse King back to the Imperial Horse Bureau. This is to prevent the minor officials from spreading rumors if the Celestial Thearch wants to investigate this matter. After all, there was still the Taibai Jinxing behind this demon monkey!”Heavenly King Li was indeed a shrewd person, and his actions were flawless.
When Taibai Jinxing returned from his business trip to the Western Spirit Mountain and returned his horse to the Imperial Horse Prison, he saw that all the immortal officials were dejected and the prison was in a mess, but he could not see Sun Wukong. Jin Xing felt that something was wrong and hurriedly asked the small officials what was going on. The immortal officials told Taibai Jinxing what had happened in detail.
After Jin Xing heard what had happened, he secretly cried out,""This damned monkey, why didn't you wait for me to return before leaving? This time, the trouble was huge. This monkey probably couldn't keep his life!”
Taibai Jinxing knew that Wukong was not the cause of this matter, but Wukong left without saying goodbye and rode away the Pegasus. He had committed a capital crime. Although he was anxious, there was nothing he could do. Seeing that the sky was already dark, he decided to report this matter to the Celestial Emperor tomorrow. As for whether he could save Sun Wukong's life, it would depend on his luck.
